…what else could possibly be the theme of this post!!?? We all love the last day of the official week
The kittens survived their first night, hooray!! They didn’t destroy anything whilst they were left alone, and they even discovered a few new sleeping places….
(That’s on a dresser in the kitchen…totally random!? I had to lay down all the picture frames in case they went flying
)
And today, I got some more cute kitten photos! I think they’re a little better than yesterday’s appalling selection:
That’s Kovac, who is my kitten
And that is Carter, Hannah’s kitten! In case you missed it before, they’re named after the two fit doctors in E.R., cos me, my mum and my sister are all obsessed with ER
Kovac is played by…um….a guy with a Ukranian name, I forget it!! And Carter is Noah Wyle
St a Google date , they’re fit
Kovac blates has no shame, he just lets it aaaalll hang out
Look at those EYES!! Hehe, he’s like Puss in Boots from Shrek
Isn’t that so cute and perfect!!?? If only I could chuck Obama in the middle, then the Cat Circle would be complete. She’s still upset though, she hisses if she sees them :s
I really thought she’d love having two new boyfriends to play with (what self-respecting girl wouldn’t, let’s be fair :p) but apparently not….I’m sure she’ll come round to their charms eventually though…
OK! That’s enough kitten photos for one post – now I’ll move onto the whole point of this blog, FOOD!!
I woke up niicce and early, and had a square of chocolate (it was a square from that new Galaxy bubbles, for those Brit people out there – for the record, not that incredible – it didn’t taste nearly as rich and creamy as normal Galaxy!), a tbsp of wheatgerm and a shiny red Empire. I then did some weights and aerobics DVDs for an hour, then hit up breakfaaaassst:
- 1/2cup oats
- 1 cup ++ milk
- 1.5 tiny bananas
- cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla
- topped with Fruit N Fibre, 3tbsp Grape Nuts (1 on the oatmeal, 2 straight into me – it was the end of the packet, I had to finish it!), and 1tsp PB – I tried to melt it in the microwave with some milk to make a sauce, but all that happened was the cup it was cracked, and the PB went lumpy and the milk was lukewarm. I threw it away…
No banana chips in this handful

I really can’t imagine a life without Grape Nuts or PB now..I honestly don’t know how I existed!!
The rest of the morning was spent working, then driving to the train station at 1.30 to pick my sister up; she wasn’t there, I texted her, turns out she forgot to say she was GETTING the 1.30 train, but ARRIVING at 3.30….duh! So I came home and quickly whipped up some lunch:
Sardines, mashed with salt and pepper and lemon juice and fresh basil:
Aga pressed sweet potato discs:
Aga pressed swede, with tahini for dippeh-dippeh-ness:
Roast kabocha squash, with A LOT of cinnamon and mixed herbs:
And (yes,the last part now!!) roast cherry tomatoes, brussels and kale crisps, with soy sauce, mixed herbs and s+p:
All in all, quite the feast!!
Unfortunately I completly rushed it down cos I needed to write this post, then go to the station again and I was worried I’d run out of time
As it turns out, I have 15mins spare
Just enough time to play with some KITTENS methinks!!!
More to come after dinnneerr
(Don’t forget – I’ll be changing the blogs name to www.britchickruns.wordpress.com soon!)


















they are the cutest thing EVER!!! I literally “aaww’d” all the way through reading that post! lol, also, where do you buy your kabocha squash? I’ve been dying to try it but can’t find it anywhere
The same magical cave that stocks all my funky cereal (aka Waitrose!!)
I can’t get over how cute those kittens are! I can’t believe they snuggle. I wish my cats would snuggle. They hate each other.
Irvin jumps on Beatrice’s back when she isn’t expecting it. It’s mean! And kinda funny…haha.
Beatrice and Irvin! LOVE IT!
Your dinner looks awesome girly!! I love love veggie filled dinners like that. Sweet potatoes have my heart
I cannot find that darn squash though, I’m sad. I’ve looked everywhere for it!! And gosh your oats look amazing! Life without pb… I won’t even go there lol
Your kittens are ADORABLE!! And so photogenic. My cats do not enjoy having their pictures taken.. shame.
And to answer your question, my camera is a Canon Power Shot A540. It’s pretty old for a digital camera. It was actually my mom’s but I stole it from her haha just kidding, she passed it on to me. I’d actually love to get a new one and I’m hoping to buy one soon.
I think it’s a case of once you’ve tried sweet potato, you can never go back…any other potato is SO inferior now!
Your kittens are soo cute – please can I have them!!
Good going on your 15 mile run on Wednesday – I’ve got one planned for tomorrow for my marathon training. Although I will not be anywhere near as quick as you!!
You had such great times!!
Have a great weekend at home – Don’t work to hard!
Charlotte xx
Oohh good luck on your 15miler! It feels like such an epic distance, only *11* more miles and it’d be a marathon
xx
That must be a huge plate you have to fit all of those delicious veggies on there! I am impressed! Sardines used to be a favorite when i was kid before i went veg… A little tip with the nut butter melting process: Use the stovetop, put a little bit of it in a pan on low heat for 2 minutes and it will melt quite nicely! I am seriously loving the name of your cats, Obama is pretty hilarious… I guess it is a lot better than if you would have named him George though?
:O Very good idea, thankyou!!
Lol at Obama – we names her that cos she’s beautiful and black with a tiiiny bit of white (we all love Barack in my family – he’s SO cute!!) – THEN we found out she was a girl….
Those cats are seriously adorable – like seriously! I love the first pic!!
Your cats are so adorable!
